Minehead is where Exmoor meets the sea. Sitting on the very
edge of the National Park, Minehead is ideal for lovers of the
coast and the countryside. Minehead offers traditional seaside
fun, with its promenade and long, sandy beach, and pebble beach
near the harbour, which stretches for a mile and gives views
across the Bristol Channel to Wales.

The town was once a fishing village, now caters for a large
number of holidaymakers every year. The parish church used to
have a beacon to guide travellers on Exmoor and help ships into
the harbour. The town has a harbour, beach and promenade, all
sheltered by the hills inland. Visit Blenheim Gardens with its
model village.

The South West Coast Path begins on the quayside in Minehead
and winds its way around the coastline to Poole in Dorset: the
start is marked by a huge sculpture of a pair of hands holding
a map. Take a walk up The Parade to admire the vibrant floral
displays and sample the cafes, pubs and restaurants. There is a
wide range of guest houses and small hotels, as well as camping
and caravan sites.

North Hill, where Exmoor National Park begins, dominates the
town and its green slopes can be seen for miles around. It is
just a short walk from the centre of town, so without venturing
far you can enjoy the countryside and even spot red deer and
Exmoor ponies.
